Welcome to the Future of Handheld Gaming

And my little review of what I think of it

I managed to get two of these beauties from those wicked guys over at Lik-Sang.com a few days after launch.

This site is to help anyone else get hold of one, find out what they can do with it and a load of other things besides.

Please have a look around
